Shirebrook Jobcentre Calling Support Group Claimants For Work Focused Interviews Under Threat Of Sanctioning
by samedifference1
Readers,
my intention in sharing this Twitter thread is to try to find out
whether this is happening at any other JobCentres. I don't mean to worry
or scare anyone. If you haven't heard about it, that's a good thing so
please don't worry!
Quick question @DWPgovuk - Is it mandatory for claimants in the Support Group of ESA to attend work-focused interviews?— TheWelfairFoundation (@Welfair_F) September 13, 2014
@DWPgovuk Shirebrook Jobcentre is calling Support Group claimants in for these interviews with threats of sanctions for non-attendance!— TheWelfairFoundation (@Welfair_F) September 15, 2014

@refuted Shirebrook Jobcentre are insisting that Support Group claimants now have to attend or be sanctioned. Nobody else has heard of this— TheWelfairFoundation (@Welfair_F) September 15, 2014
Refuted
seem to be suggesting that Shirebrook JobCentre are going against DWP
guidelines, in which case they need to be named and shamed.
